These are all Sakura's readers.
Deng Shangwei couldn't help laughing whenever he thought of this.
Who among Boss Qin and Mr. Wang doesn't envy him? His niece, a high school student, has published a book!
Children raised in wealthy and powerful families may possess many talents, but writing, for example, has nothing to do with family background; if you can, you can, and if you can't, you can't. Furthermore, Wen Ying's family provided no support from serializing her novel in a magazine to publishing it; it was entirely her own doing. This was quite different from Tianjiao Films hiring her to write a script. Wen Ying relied on connections to some extent for writing scripts, but not for publishing a book... This was Wen Ying's own ability.
The glory of our fathers will eventually fade away. Young people like Wen Ying who conquer others with their talents will be looked up to wherever they go.
Deng Shangwei was afraid of delaying other readers from buying books, so no matter who came to pay, as long as they were holding "Teenage Idol", he would definitely step aside.
When the clerk finished his work, he was puzzled to find Deng Shangwei still standing at the end of the line.
You've been standing here for the whole morning, and you don't even know how to move forward?
"You still want to buy 'Teen Idol'?"
"Buy, 100 copies, but I'm not in a hurry, let others buy first."
Deng Shangwei counted and found that he had been waiting in the bookstore for the whole morning and had sold nearly 50 copies of "Teenage Idol". He didn't know how the publishing house calculated the royalties for Wen Ying. For each book sold, could Wen Ying get one or two dollars?
Deng Shangwei was happy for Wen Ying's achievement in publishing a book, but subconsciously he still had a businessman's mindset and couldn't help but calculate the profits from the book for Wen Ying.
If a bookstore can sell 50 books in the morning, how many books can it sell throughout the day?
There is more than one bookstore in Chengdu.
Chengdu is not the only city in Sichuan Province that has bookstores.
Let’s think more broadly. How many bookstores are there in the country?
Therefore, the royalties earned by bestselling authors are really beyond most people's imagination. If "Teenage Idol" can really sell more than 1 million copies, Wen Ying will be able to equal his and Chen Li's entire fortune from the year they came to Chengdu to last year with just one book!
Deng Shangwei spent a long while calculating, and the more he calculated, the happier he became. The clerk ran to the back warehouse to take a look and came out with some bad news: "There are less than 100 copies of 'Teen Idol' in stock. If you want to buy it, we'll have to place an order for you first."
"Your bookstore has too little stock!"
Deng Shangwei seemed to be complaining, but he was actually smiling inside.
He would rather hear that "Teen Idol" is sold out than the clerk telling him that there are less than a hundred copies in stock!
The clerk secretly rolled his eyes.
The stock of "Teenage Idol" is quite large. Bookstores generally don't dare to stock so many books by new authors.
"Do you still want it?"
"Of course!"
100 copies of "Teen Idol" cost 3,200 yuan. Deng Shangwei paid without hesitation. He paid for 100 copies and only took away the receipt and one copy of "Teen Idol". He was not in a hurry anyway, so he took one copy to read first and left the rest for other readers.
"I'll put the box here. When the books arrive, put them in the box for me!"
Seeing Deng Shangwei's generosity, the parents who accompanied their children to the bookstore were a little curious.
The book "Teenage Idols" seems to be quite popular recently. Would you like to buy a copy and take a look?
The promotional slogan is very good, something like "young idol, overcoming all obstacles", it better not be a wolf in sheep's clothing. It sounds so passionate, but when you open the book, the content is still about premature love, heartbreak, secret love, unrequited love and love triangles, as if youth is only about falling in love!
"Give me one too."
"'Teen Idol'?"
"Yeah, if so many people are buying it, it should be okay!"
Customers are king. After selling a book, the clerk would quickly report to his superiors: "Teenage Idol" needs to be stocked up. The last book to show this trend was "Hush, Little Secret", but "Hush, Little Secret" became popular amidst criticism after it was released, and not many were sold on the first day.
"Teen Idol" is different. It became popular and criticized before it was even released!
…
Hunan Province.
"Teenage Idol" is also on the shelves of major bookstores.
There are still people buying this book in Hunan Province, but it is not as popular as it was in Chengdu. The publicity efforts of Chengdu's print media were obviously weakened by 90% when it came to Hunan Province.
However, the constant reports from Chengdu did affect Hunan Province to some extent. Moreover, "Aige" had a high market share in Hunan Province, and "Teenage Idol" already had a certain basic readership.
Readers don’t understand what’s going on with the dispute between ‘Fish Against the Current’ and ‘Aige’, but they have already read the book for seven issues in a row, and some readers are very worried because they are not allowed to read the remaining parts.
Reading is a very simple pleasure, why make it so complicated?
Some readers were discouraged by the magazine’s statement, while some readers were only interested in the story. They like to eat eggs but don’t necessarily like the hens that lay them. Even if the author is a real scumbag, it will not affect these readers’ pursuit of the novel.
A sneaky figure appeared at the door of a bookstore.
Not only did she wear a hat and sunglasses in such hot weather, she also tied a scarf around her neck to cover herself up tightly, making passers-by subconsciously take a second look.
"I want a copy of Teen Idol."
The sneaky girl told the clerk in a hushed voice.
The clerk blinked, "You are Li Mengjiao——"
Li Mengjiao was about to burst into tears. Even though she was disguised like this, she could still be recognized?
The clerk was excited and lowered his voice: "I'm your fan!"
What is a qualified fan? They never get tired of listening to their idol’s songs and can even recognize their idol’s voice!
Li Mengjiao made a hushing gesture, picked up a notepad and signed it for the clerk. The clerk quickly stuffed the signed notepad under the cash register and pretended nothing had happened.
